OpenAI weighs 'Pro Max' ChatGPT plan that would charge extra for longer tasks

According to Runtime Wire, OpenAI is looking to roll out a "Pro Max" plan for ChatGPT that would put a price on longer tasks — meaning long-running jobs may be billed separately rather than covered by existing subscription quotas.

If it ships, the plan would mark another tier of OpenAI's subscription ladder and signal tighter monetization of compute-intensive, long-horizon usage.
